The Four Bridges Bike Ride sponsored by the Rhode Island Turnpike and Bridge Authority will take place Sunday, Sept. 15, starting at 7 a.m. at the North Kingstown Park and Ride and ending just outside of Roger Williams University in Bristol. All participants must abide by the rules of the road throughout the course. The Pell and Jamestown bridges are normally closed to bicycle traffic but participants will be allowed to bike across for the event. The new Sakonnet Bridge pedestrian path will be open.

Hundreds of participants are expected to turn out and enjoy this scenic morning ride through seven coastal communities. Experienced riders will cross the Narragansett Bay and Sakonnet River taking in some of the more exceptional views Rhode Island has to offer.

Sponsorship opportunities are available and interested parties should contact Matt Gray at (401) 318-2991 or via email matt@graymattermarketing.com. All net proceeds will benefit a local charity. Organizers will name the charity soon.

Registration is $50 through Aug. 30 and $55 starting Sept. 1.
